#levantis twins

[praline-elegy]

I suddenly want to write The Little Mermaid but make it about Thomas Leventis and navigate a tale about a twin who traded his voice for legs while Aster is exasperated by his brother’s romantic endeavors 😂

But also because they’re twins they have telepathy so while Thomas can’t talk to his “Prince Charming” he can bemoan his awful flirting attempts to his brother with his mind 😆😅

[glowingvenus]

What are your thoughts on Exton’s fencing team? Individually or as a whole? Any headcanons about them? How about Halverton?

ah well i must admit i don't think too much about the characters from other schools for the most part, since we haven't spent much time with them yet. I do think the leventis twins (levantis? omg what is the canon spelling of their name) are super cute and probably very annoying to be around for too long. I have one headcanon which is that they switch personalities a bit when they're drinking...

That said i love reading about these characters bc there are some super talented writers in this fandom who can really flesh them out! probably far beyond what canon is going to do for them lol

What better way to end a round than with twins! This gold-haired, gold-eyed little boy is called Jesper Levanti. Named after one of my favourite fictional characters, Jesper from the Six of Crows duology. 

[praline-elegy]

Fence headcanons that I have:

- Seiji would absolutely 100% play Neko Atsume. He also seems to be the type to not rename the cats in the game, but he probably renames the one that reminds him of Nicholas the most. Maybe he renames one of the cats “Zero” as to be more subtle about it.

- Nicholas knows how to pick a lock but doesn’t advertise that information. One day Coach Williams is locked out of her car and Nicholas gets that bad boy opened in less than five minutes. Neither of them speak of it. She generously gives him less sprints the next time he has to run them.

- Jesse has some inherent older brother energy that he attributes to being Exton’s fencing captain. I also like to think that he’s close to Aster (the grumpy Levantis twin) based off that one panel of Jesse putting a hand on his shoulder.

- Thomas (the sunshine Levantis twin) is not a morning person despite his smiley demeanor. Meanwhile his brother Aster wakes up perfectly refreshed every morning.

- Seiji is a dog person and I will die on this hill. (Or at the very least owns a dog because his parents wanted one).

- Dante either has the most gorgeous or the most horrendous singing voice. There is no in-between. He also seems to be the type to do something astonishing for his character and then say “No one will believe you,” and walk away. I’m thinking he could idk juggle??

- Nicholas is actually good at academics when he applies himself. He just never got the chance to properly do so back at Bridgeport High. He scored higher than Seiji once on a Latin quiz because he decided to study instead of nap when his phone died during study hall.

[praline-elegy]

My first Eugesse? 😳

The beach was not a place that Eugene expected to find Jesse at.

Well, maybe at a white sandy beach with pristine blue water and a strawberry daiquiri in hand—not this messy beachfront with patches of tall wild grass, broken pieces of driftwood scattered across the sand, and waves that lapped up the coast in a dark blue murky haze, spitting up seaweed in clumps along the wet shore. It had character, and was pretty in its own right, but it didn’t really fit the image Eugene had of Jesse inside his own head.

Speaking of said crush, there he was. Standing along a little ways off by the water while the wind swept through his hair.

Eugene wanted to go up to Jesse and say hi, but then he saw the way the blond boy looked at Seiji who had approached the edge of the sea just then, toes in the sand, but just far enough away that the water wouldn’t lap at his feet.

He saw Jesse look at Seiji with an emotion that looked vaguely like longing mixed with something else, and felt a nasty twist in his gut. The point of an épée right under his rib, pushing and pressing through the ache of his soul.

Eugene wasn’t dumb. He could glean that there used to be something there. Platonic. Romantic. It didn’t matter. He did know that the two had spent years together—childhood friends with a burning rivalry. And maybe there was something more there, something worth a label. But Eugene wouldn’t know. Eugene didn’t know. It wasn’t his story to tell, or to know for that matter. He could respect that.

But still, he couldn’t help the way that it made him feel. It was as though one of his siblings took a marker and scribbled it over his brain, over his skin, ending in a concentrated tangle of lines over his heart.

His chest ached.

He stared at Jesse for a moment longer; tall and broad-shouldered, a defined jawline, his for-once-bare-forearms—the sleeves of his linen shirt rolled neatly up to reveal some impressive muscle—his hands tucked casually into the pockets of his cargo shorts.

He wondered what it would be like to be arm wrestle Jesse. To hold his hand before winning a match of brawns—or perhaps he’d lose… having lost the moment Jesse held Eugene’s hand in his.

Not that Jesse would ever do such a thing. He didn’t seem like the physical type, but then the memory of Jesse absentmindedly offering his hand to one of the Levantis twins after a fencing bout for a hand massage flashed through his mind. But maybe he permitted such a casual touch for the masseuse on Exton’s team, or maybe he made the exception just for soothing hand cramps.

Eugene wouldn’t know. Eugene didn’t know a lot of things. But he didn’t let that bother him. Usually.

But still, he couldn’t help but let his mind wander and think of dangerous things.

What would it be like for Jesse to hold him? In his arms. Against his chest. Just simply. Being.

Eugene tore his eyes away, staring at the crashing waves of the ocean as a tinge of melancholy seeped into the corners of his mouth. He bit his lip to stave off his wavering emotions.

He didn’t notice the pair of blue eyes looking his way.

"Eugene!"

He snapped his head toward the call of his name.

"Come help me set up!" Nicholas shouted, dragging some beach equipment behind him in the sand.

"I gotchu bro!" Eugene shouted back, turning away from golden sunshine and seaside blue.
